There’s no way to make this “right”. Going back in with a one row wouldn’t accomplish anything because the new plants would be weeds to the taller plants. Hopefully it’s one row out of 16 or 24 and hopefully it’s only a few acres. If that one row still produces 75% it won’t be an economic disaster.


Yeah. The late emerging plants are the problem. Adding more just makes that worse.

If they're way to shallow, ridging it up a bit with a cultivator once it is a foot tall will give the plants more soil to root in.
